BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The compound (10R)-7-amino-12-fluoro-2,10,16-trimethyl-15-oxo-10,15,16,17-tetrahydro-2H-8,4-(metheno)pyrazolo[4,3-h][2,5,11]benzoxadiazacyclotetradecine-3-carbonitrile (PF-06463922), represented by the formula (I):

Human cancers comprise a diverse array of diseases that collectively are one of the leading causes of death in developed countries throughout the world (American Cancer Society, Cancer Facts and Figures 2005. Atlanta: American Cancer Society; 2005). The progression of cancers is caused by a complex series of multiple genetic and molecular events including gene mutations, chromosomal translocations and karyotypic abnormalities (Hanahan & Weinberg, The hallmarks of cancer. Cell 2000; 100: 57-70). Although the underlying genetic causes of cancer are both diverse and complex, each cancer type has been observed to exhibit common traits and acquired capabilities that facilitate its progression. These acquired capabilities include dysregulated cell growth, sustained ability to recruit blood vessels (i.e., angiogenesis) and ability of tumor cells to spread locally as well as metastasize to secondary organ sites (Hanahan & Weinberg 2000). Therefore, the ability to identify novel therapeutic agents that inhibit molecular targets that are altered during cancer progression or target multiple processes that are common to cancer progression in a variety of tumors presents a significant unmet need.

Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) play fundamental roles in cellular processes, including cell proliferation, migration, metabolism, differentiation and survival. RTK activity is tightly controlled in normal cells. The constitutively enhanced RTK activities from point mutation, amplification and rearrangement of the corresponding genes have been implicated in the development and progression of many types of cancer. (Gschwind et al., The discovery of receptor tyrosine kinases: targets for cancer therapy. Nat. Rev. Cancer 2004; 4, 361-370; Krause & Van Etten, Tyrosine kinases as targets for cancer therapy. N. Engl. J. Med. 2005; 353: 172-187.)

Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) is a receptor tyrosine kinase, grouped together with leukocyte tyrosine kinase (LTK) to a subfamily within the insulin receptor (IR) superfamily. ALK was first discovered as a fusion protein with nucleophosmin (NPM) in anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) cell lines in 1994. (Morris et al., Fusion of a kinase gene, ALK, to a nucleolar protein gene, NPM, in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Science 1994; 263:1281-1284.) NPM-ALK, which results from a chromosomal translocation, is implicated in the pathogenesis of human anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) (Pulford et al., Anaplastic lymphoma kinase proteins in growth control and cancer. J. Cell Physiol., 2004; 199: 330-58). The roles of aberrant expression of constitutively active ALK chimeric proteins in the pathogenesis of ALCL have been defined (Wan et. al., Anaplastic lymphoma kinase activity is essential for the proliferation and survival of anaplastic large cell lymphoma cells. Blood, 2006; 107:1617-1623). Other chromosomal rearrangements resulting in ALK fusions have been subsequently detected in ALCL (50-60%), inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors (27%) and non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (2-7%). (Palmer et al., Anaplastic lymphoma kinase: signaling in development and disease. Biochem. J. 2009; 420:345-361.)

The EML4-ALK fusion gene, comprising portions of the echinoderm microtubule associated protein-like 4 (EML4) gene and the ALK gene, was first discovered in NSCLC archived clinical specimens and cell lines. (Soda et al., Identification of the transforming EML4-ALK fusion gene in non-small cell lung cancer. Nature 2007; 448:561-566; Rikova et al., Cell 2007; 131:1190-1203.) EML4-ALK fusion variants were demonstrated to transform NIH-3T3 fibroblasts and cause lung adenocarcinoma when expressed in transgenic mice, confirming the potent oncogenic activity of the EML4-ALK fusion kinase. (Soda et al., A mouse model for EML4-ALK-positive lung cancer. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 2008; 105:19893-19897.) Oncogenic mutations of ALK in both familial and sporadic cases of neuroblastoma have also been reported. (Caren et al., High incidence of DNA mutations and gene amplifications of the ALK gene in advanced sporadic neuroblastoma tumors. Biochem. J. 2008; 416:153-159.)

ROS1 is a proto-oncogene receptor tyrosine kinase that belongs to the insulin receptor subfamily and is involved in cell proliferation and differentiation processes. (Nagarajan et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci 1986; 83:6568-6572). ROS1 is expressed, in humans, in epithelial cells of a variety of different tissues. Defects in ROS1 expression and/or activation have been found in glioblastoma, as well as tumors of the central nervous system (Charest et al., Genes Chromos. Can. 2003; 37(1): 58-71). Genetic alterations involving ROS1 that result in aberrant fusion proteins of ROS1 kinase have been described, including the FIG-ROS1 deletion translocation in glioblastoma (Charest et al. (2003); Birchmeier et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci 1987; 84:9270-9274; and NSCLC (Rimkunas et al., Analysis of Receptor Tyrosine Kinase ROS1-Positive Tumors in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: Identification of FIG-ROS1 Fusion, Clin Cancer Res 2012; 18:4449-4457), the SLC34A2-ROS1 translocation in NSCLC (Rikova et al. Cell 2007; 131:1190-1203), the CD74-ROS1 translocation in NSCLC (Rikova et al. (2007)) and cholangiocarcinoma (Gu et al. PLoS ONE 2011; 6(1): e15640) and a truncated, active form of ROS1 known to drive tumor growth in mice (Birchmeier et al. Mol. Cell. Bio. 1986; 6(9):3109-3115). Additional fusions, including TPM3-ROS1, SDC4-ROS1, EZR-ROS1 and LRIG3-ROS1, have been reported in lung cancer patient tumor samples (Takeuchi et al., RET, ROS1 and ALK fusions in lung cancer, Nature Medicine 2012; 18(3):378-381).

The ALK/ROS1/c-MET inhibitor crizotinib was approved in 2011 for the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC that is ALK-positive as detected by an FDA-approved test. Crizotinib has also shown efficacy in treatment of NSCLC with ROS1 translocations. (Shaw et al. Clinical activity of crizotinib in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring ROS1 gene rearrangement. Presented at the Annual Meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology, Chicago, Jun. 1-5, 2012.) As observed clinically for other tyrosine kinase inhibitors, mutations in ALK and ROS1 that confer resistance to ALK inhibitors have been described (Choi et al., EML4-ALK Mutations in Lung Cancer than Confer Resistance to ALK Inhibitors, N Engl J Med 2010; 363:1734-1739; Awad et al., Acquired Resistance to Crizotinib from a Mutation in CD74-ROS1, N Engl J Med 2013; 368:2395-2401).

Thus, ALK and ROS1 are attractive molecular targets for cancer therapeutic intervention. There remains a need to identify compounds having novel activity profiles against wild-type and mutant forms of ALK and ROS1.

The present invention provides novel crystalline forms of lorlatinib maleate having desirable properties, such as high crystallinity, high purity, low hygroscopicity and favorable dissolution and mechanical properties. In particular, lorlatinib maleate hydrate provides improved physical stability in the drug product formulation relative to the acetic acid solvate form disclosed in International Patent Publication No. WO 2014/207606. Such solvated forms may present challenges for drug development, in particular with respect to physical stability. Consequently, there remains a need to identify novel forms having desirable physicochemical properties.

One skilled in the art will appreciate that the peak positions (2θ) will show some variability, typically as much as ±0.2°. Further, one skilled in the art will appreciate that relative peak intensities will show inter-apparatus variability as well as variability due to degree of crystallinity, preferred orientation, prepared sample surface and other factors known to those skilled in the art and should be taken as qualitative measures only. Similarly, Raman spectrum wavenumber (cm⁻¹) values show variability, typically as much as ±2 cm⁻¹, while ¹³C and ¹⁹F solid state NMR spectrum (ppm) show variability, typically as much as ±0.2 ppm.

The term “crystalline” as used herein, means having a regularly repeating arrangement of molecules or external face planes. Crystalline forms may differ with respect to thermodynamic stability, physical parameters, x-ray structure and preparation processes.

The term “amorphous” refers to a disordered solid state.

The term “solvate” as used herein, means having on a surface, in a lattice or on a surface and in a lattice, a stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric amount of a solvent such as water, acetic acid, methanol, etc., or mixtures thereof, bound by non-covalent intermolecular forces. The term “hydrate” may be used specifically to describe a solvate comprising water.

The term “anhydrous” as used herein, means a crystalline form containing less than about 1% (w/w) of adsorbed moisture as determined by standard methods, such as a Karl Fisher analysis.

The invention described herein may be suitably practiced in the absence of any element(s) not specifically disclosed herein. Thus, for example, in each instance herein any of the terms “comprising”, “consisting essentially of” and “consisting of” may be replaced with either of the other two terms.

EXAMPLES

The examples and preparations provided below further illustrate and exemplify particular aspects and embodiments of the invention. It is to be understood that the scope of the present invention is not limited by the scope of the following examples.

General Method 1. Powder X-Ray Diffraction (PXRD)

The PXRD data in FIG. 1 were collected according to the following general protocol.

Instrument Method:

PXRD patterns were collected on a Bruker-AXS Ltd. D4 powder X-ray diffractometer fitted with an automatic sample changer, a theta-theta goniometer, automatic beam divergence slit and a PSD Vantec-1 detector. The X-ray tube voltage and amperage were set to 40 kV and 40 mA respectively. The diffractometer was aligned and a calibration check performed using a corundum reference material on the day of data collection. Data was collected at the Cu Kapha1 with wavelength of 1.541 Å using a step size of 0.018 degrees and scan time and 11.3 hours scanning from 2.0 to 65.0 degrees 2-theta for both the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and the formulated tablet samples. API samples were prepared by placing the powder in cavity low background holder. The sample powder was pressed by a glass slide to ensure that a proper sample height was achieved and rotated during collection. The tablet samples were subjected to cleaving. The tablet surface was scraped using a scalpel to obtain a smooth and even surface. The tablet was mounted on the PXRD wafer secured with blue tack and covered with x-ray transparent film followed by data collection using the same method as the API sample. Data were collected using Bruker DIFFRAC software and analysis was performed by DIFFRAC EVA software (Version 3.1)

Peak Selection Method

The PXRD patterns collected were imported into Bruker DIFFRAC EVA software, version 3.1. The measured PXRD pattern was aligned to a pattern of a sample with an internal reference to determine the absolute peak positions of the API. The internal reference used was corundum and the absolute peak position for corundum were calculated based on the corundum cell parameters provided in the Certificate of Analysis (NIST SRM 676) for the standard used. All peak of the API were extracted in a table with the accurate peak position provided to one d.p. together with the relative peak intensities.

A typical error of ±0.2° 2-theta in peak positions applies to this data. The minor error associated with this measurement can occur as a result of a variety of factors including: (a) sample preparation (e.g., sample height), (b) instrument, (c) calibration, (d) operator (including those errors present when determining the peak locations), and (e) the nature of the material (e.g. preferred orientation and transparency errors). Therefore peaks are considered to have a typical associated error of ±0.2° 2-theta. When two peaks, in the list, are considered to overlap (±0.2° 2-theta) the less intense peak has been removed from the listing. Peaks existing as shoulders, on a higher intensity adjacent peak, have also been removed from the peak list. While the shoulders may be >0.2° 2-theta from the position of the adjacent peak, they are not considered as discernible from the adjacent peak.

General Method 2. Raman Spectroscopy

The Raman spectral data in FIG. 2 were collected according to the following general protocol.

Instrument Method:

A Raman spectrum of lorlatinib maleate hydrate (Form 2) was collected using a RAM II FT Raman module attached to a Vertex 70 FTIR spectrometer. The instrument is equipped with a 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser and a liquid nitrogen cooled germanium detector. Prior to data acquisition, instrument performance and calibration verifications were conducted using a white light source and polystyrene and naphthalene references. Raman spectra of a 25 mgA prototype tablet and lorlatinib maleate hydrate (Form 2) were also acquired under the same acquisition conditions.

Samples were analyzed in truncated NMR tubes (5 mm diameter) that were spun during spectral collection. The backscattered Raman signal from the sample in the rotator was optimized and a spectrum was acquired using the following parameters:

-   -   Laser power: 500 mW     -   Spectral resolution: 2 cm⁻¹     -   Collection range: approximately 4000-50 cm⁻¹     -   Number of scans: 512     -   Apodization function: Blackmann-Harris 4-term

The variability in the peak positions in this experimental configuration is within ±2 cm⁻.

Peak Selection Method:

Prior to peak picking the intensity scale of the Stokes scattered Raman signal was normalized to 1.0. Peaks positions were then identified using the peak picking functionality in the GRAMS/AI v.9.1 software (Thermo Fisher Scientific) with the threshold set to 0.05.

Peaks with relative intensities between 1.0 and 0.51, 0.50 and 0.26 and 0.25 or below were labelled as strong, medium and weak respectively.

It is expected that, since FT Raman and dispersive Raman are similar techniques, peak positions reported herein for FT Raman spectra would be consistent with those which would be observed using a dispersive Raman measurement, assuming appropriate instrument calibration.

General Method 3. Solid State NMR (ssNMR) Spectroscopy:

The carbon CPMAS and fluorine MAS ssNMR data in FIGS. 3, 4, 7 and 8 were collected according to the following general protocol.

Instrument Method:

¹⁹F solid state NMR (ssNMR) analysis was conducted at 20° C. on a Bruker-BioSpin cross-polarization magic angle spinning (CPMAS) probe positioned into a Bruker-BioSpin Avance III HD 400 MHz (1 H frequency) NMR spectrometer. The fluorine ssNMR spectra were collected using a proton decoupled direct polarization magic angle spinning (MAS) experiment. A phase modulated proton decoupling field of approximately 60 kHz was applied during spectral acquisition. The Form 1 spectrum was collected for 8 scans using 20.0 kHz MAS and a recycle delay of 60 seconds. The Form 2 spectrum was collected for 8 scans using 14.0 kHz MAS and a recycle delay of 150 seconds. The fluorine chemical shift scale was referenced using a proton decoupled direct polarization fluorine experiment on an external standard of 50/50 volume/volume of trifluoroacetic acid and water, setting its resonance to −76.54 ppm.

Carbon solid state NMR (ssNMR) analysis on Form 1 was conducted at ambient temperature and pressure on a Varian CPMAS probe positioned into a Varian VNMRS 400 MHz (1 H frequency) NMR spectrometer. The carbon ssNMR spectrum was collected using a CPMAS experiment with TOSS spinning side band suppression. A phase modulated proton decoupling field of approximately 80 kHz was applied during spectral acquisition. The Form 1 spectrum was collected for 5760 scans using 8.0 kHz of MAS, a cross-polarization contact time of 5 ms and a recycle delay of 5 seconds. The carbon chemical shift scale was referenced using a proton decoupled carbon CPMAS experiment on an external standard of crystalline adamantane, setting its downfield resonance to 38.5 ppm (as determined from neat TMS).

Carbon solid state NMR (ssNMR) analysis on Form 2 was conducted at 20° C. on a Bruker-BioSpin CPMAS probe positioned into a Bruker-BioSpin Avance III HD 400 MHz (1 H frequency) NMR spectrometer. The carbon ssNMR spectrum was collected using a proton decoupled CPMAS experiment with TOSS spinning side band suppression. A phase modulated proton decoupling field of approximately 75 kHz was applied during spectral acquisition. The Form 2 spectrum was collected for 5269 scans using 10.0 kHz of MAS, a cross-polarization contact time of 7 ms and a recycle delay of 10.5 seconds. The carbon chemical shift scale was referenced using a proton decoupled carbon CPMAS experiment on an external standard of crystalline adamantane, setting its downfield resonance to 38.5 ppm (as determined from neat TMS).

Peak Selection Method:

Automatic peak picking was performed using Bruker-BioSpin TopSpin version 3.2 software. Generally, a threshold value of 5% relative intensity was used to preliminary select peaks. The output of the automated peak picking was visually checked to ensure validity and adjustments were manually made if necessary.

Although specific ¹³C and ¹⁹F solid state NMR peak values are reported herein there does exist a range for these peak values due to differences in instruments, samples and sample preparation. This is common practice in the art of solid state NMR because of the variation inherent in peak values. A typical variability for a ¹³C and ¹⁹F chemical shift x-axis value is on the order of plus or minus 0.2 ppm for a crystalline solid. The solid state NMR peak heights reported herein are relative intensities. The solid state NMR intensities can vary depending on the actual setup of the experimental parameters and the thermal history of the sample.

The selected characteristic carbon peaks are narrow, have high intensity and belong to single carbon in the molecule. The ¹³C and ¹⁹F spectra of Form 2 are presented in FIGS. 3 and 4 respectively.

Example 1 Preparation of (10R)-7-amino-12-fluoro-2,10,16-trimethyl-15-oxo-10,15,16,17-tetrahydro-2H-8,4-(metheno)pyrazolo[4,3-h][2,5,11]benzoxadiazacyclotetradecine-3-carbonitrile (PF-06463922) maleate hydrate (Form 2)

A 500-mL glass jar containing a magnetic stir bar was charged with maleic acid (1.20 equiv., 3.12 g), EtOAc (10.0 mL/g, 90.0 mL) and water (4 equiv., 1.60 mL). The contents were stirred at room temp for several minutes. The clear maleic acid solution was charged to an EasyMax dosing pump.

A 100-mL EasyMax reactor equipped with an overhead agitator, temperature probe and a dosing pump, was charged with lorlatinib free base (9.00 g, 1.00 equiv.) and EtOAc (5.0 mL/g, 45.0 mL) and the suspension was heated to 70° C. (Tj). The reactor was charged with an additional 10 mL of EtOAc (10.0 mL, 1.11 mL/g), to bring the total EtOAc volume to 55.0 mL (6.11 mL/g). Upon visual confirmation that no solids remained and a clear solution was persistent at 70° C., the maleic acid solution was dosed over 90 min (1 mL/min). After 45.0 mL had been dosed, the jacket temperature was decreased to 60° C. and the dosing continued. The reactor was held at 60° (Tj) for 18 h then cooled to 10° C. over 33 min (1.5 K/min).

The solids were isolated by filtration through a 65-mL, medium-porosity, sintered-glass funnel lined with Whatman paper. The mother liquor was returned to the reactor and stirred at 450 rpm to remove the solids that were adhered to the reactor. After several minutes the slurry in the reactor was emptied onto the filter cake. After the mother liquor was pulled from the filter cake, the vacuum was disconnected and fresh, anhydrous EtOAc (15.0 mL) was poured onto the filter cake. The filter cake was agitated manually using a spatula, then the vacuum was reconnected and the EtOAc rinse was pulled away. The product cake was covered with a clean crystallizing dish and dried by pulling air through the filter for 3 days (11.1 g, 92.7% yield).

Lorlatinib acetic acid solvate (0.70 kg, 1.5 moles), ethyl acetate (8.5 L) and process water (1.4 L) are combined in a reactor at 15 to 25° C. A 1M solution of sodium hydroxide (1.65 L, 1.65 moles) is charged at a controlled rate over approximately 50 minutes. The reaction mixture was stirred at 15 to 25° C. for at least 15 minutes and then heated to 35-45° C. After reaching 35-45° C., the bottom aqueous layer was separated off and the top organic layer was washed with process water (3.5 L) at 40±5° C. The bottom aqueous wash layer was removed by separation. The product containing organic layer was concentrated by atmospheric distillation to a volume of approximately 3 L volume, treated with ethyl acetate (7 L) and further concentrated to a volume of approximately 4 L solution. The product solution was adjusted to 45 to 55° C. and a solution of maleic acid (0.21 kg, 1.8 moles) dissolved in ethyl acetate (7 L) was charged over 10 to 15 minutes, maintaining the internal temperature between 50±5° C. The mixture was adjusted to 55-65° C. and stirred for approximately 1 hour. The slurry was cooled gradually over at least 1 hour to 10 to 20° C. The product was filtered, washed with ethyl acetate (1.5 L) and then dried under vacuum at 45 to 55° C. A total of 0.638 kg (82% of theory) of anhydrous lorlatinib maleate (Form 1) was recovered.

Example 3 Representative Drug Product Formulations of Lorlatinib Maleate Hydrate (Form 2)

Immediate release (IR) tablets comprising lorlatinib maleate hydrate (Form 2) may be prepared using conventional excipients commonly used in tableted formulations. Tablets typically contain from 1-30% of lorlatinib on a w/w basis. Microcrystalline cellulose, dibasic calcium phosphate anhydrous (DCP) and/or lactose hydrate may be used as tablet fillers and sodium starch glycolate may be used as a disintegrant. Magnesium stearate may be used as a lubricant.

A typical IR tablet formulation of Form 2 containing Dibasic Calcium Phosphate Anhydrous (DCP) as a tablet filler (DCP tablet) is provided in Table 9.

IR tablets of lorlatinib maleate hydrate (Form 2) may be manufactured using a dry granulation process prior to compression. In this process the crystalline material is blended with some proportion of the excipients falling within standard ranges and the blend is dry granulated using a roller compactor. The granule may be milled as part of this process. The granules are blended with remainder of any of the excipients (e.g., magnesium stearate) prior to compression.

Example 4 Comparative Thermodynamic Stability

The thermodynamic stability of anhydrous lorlatinib maleate (Form 1) and lorlatinib maleate hydrate (Form 2) was evaluated employing slurry experiments under a range of water activity and temperature conditions. Suspensions of Form 1 were equilibrated for two weeks in acetonitrile/water and methanol/water solvent systems with water activities (Aw) in the range of 0.1 to 0.9, at three different temperatures: 5° C., room temperature and 40° C. After 2 weeks, the solids in equilibrium were isolated and solid form was evaluated by PXRD.

The results summarized in Table 10 demonstrate that anhydrous lorlatinib maleate (Form 1) API converts to the thermodynamically more stable lorlatinib maleate hydrate (Form 2) for water activities in the range of 0.1 to 0.9 and at temperatures from 5° C. to 40° C. Even a minimal amount of water (Aw=0.1) was sufficient to cause conversion of Form 1 to Form 2. Only in anhydrous conditions (Aw=0) was no conversion to the hydrate Form 2 detected. A solvated material was observed in methanol/water at Aw=0.1 and 0.3 and at a temperature of 40° C.

The thermodynamic stability of Form 2 was further assessed in variety of solvent systems at temperatures of 5° C. to 40° C. as shown in Table 11. Suspensions of Form 2 were prepared under the indicated conditions and equilibrated for 2 weeks. Resultant solids were analyzed by PXRD. No conversion to Form 1 was detected under any condition. Formation of new materials in ethanol and methanol is believed to be a solvated form. Form 2 was determined to be thermodynamically stable under a wide range of water activities and solvent conditions.

Example 5 Solid-State Physical Stability of Form 1 API and Drug Product

The physical stability of anhydrous lorlatinib maleate (Form 1) API was investigated at a variety of temperatures and percent relative humidities (% RH). Samples were maintained under conditions of 25° C./60% RH and 40° C./75% RH without desiccation and the resulting form was checked via PXRD methods after 3 months. Multiple new PXRD peaks were observed, which were consistent with Form 2. The material stored at 40° /75% RH underwent nearly complete conversion to Form 2 under these conditions based on PXRD. Form 1 stored at ambient temperature and elevated humidity levels of 75% RH and 90% RH underwent full conversion to Form 2 after 6 months.

While anhydrous lorlatinib maleate (Form 1) was meta-stable with respect to lorlatinib maleate hydrate (Form 2), a representative drug product formulation of Form 1 demonstrated superior physical stability relative to the acetic acid solvate of lorlatinib free base disclosed in WO 2014/207606.

The physical stabilities of Form 1 and lorlatinib acetic acid solvate as drug product were investigated under a variety of conditions. Results are summarized in Table 13. The nature of the solid phase impurity has been studied but not fully characterized.
